Bug or what did I do?
« on: 2016 December 30 11:23:52 »
Working with a project and CurvesTransformation, I had a real-time preview open and pressed something, but I don't know what, and the preview went full size in the workspace with no way to close or resize the image.  The real-time preview controls on the left side are present, but the top (or bottom) "close preview" button is gone - the preview goes from the main PI tool bar to the bottom PI tool bar, and there is no way to resize it.  I can select another image from the lower PI toolbar, but it is hidden behind the real-time preview. 

I don't know what I did to cause this or if it is a "feature", but I have tried every method I can think of to close or resize the preview, but nothing has any affect on it.

If you look in the top right-hand corner of the program window, under the close and minimise icons, there should be a square and an x icon. Clicking the square should restore the window to its original size.

Like the last poster on that linked thread,  there was no "X" to close the preview window on my screen - or I looked there a half dozen times and didn't see it.   Of course, if Juan says it's there, it must be!  If it happens again I'll take a screen shot if the "X" is missing.
